7 Arrows Call to Consciousness (Formerly The Ancient Art of Awareness) Our 15th Year.
A One-year Apprenticeship in the Philosophy/Ceremonies of the Ancient Americas – Please consider joining us on a tracking journey. It is a pathway into the regions of the mind, the heart and the spirit that few in our fast-paced world choose to take. This process is quite old and has withstood the ultimate tests – efficacy and time. It is our intention to create a crucible of learning, research and discovery and to hold this space for one year – but ultimately these are merely the beginning steps. These skills are important, even urgent as each of us carries a unique and powerful message for the whole.
A Stake in the Ground For countless generations our tribal ancestors cultivated a deep and meaningful relationship with all aspects of the natural world. The elemental forces of nature were their teachers, guides and messengers. This knowledge has not been lost, but stolen from us by a society that has lost its center. It endures, like a set of blueprints – written into your DNA and to reclaim its wisdom is to reclaim your Sacred birthright.
In this workshop you will learn:
- The essence of the ‘Sacred Silence’
- ‘Dynamic’ meditation
- The foundational truths in all belief systems
- Healing
- Deeper and more authentic communication with nature
- Cultivation of your own inner gifts – ‘personal medicine’
- The Visionary Process
- Reestablishment of the conscious link to your ancestry
- ‘Pure’ ceremony
- Dreamtime presence and personal symbology
- The path of the Coyote Teacher …and so much more
